TROPICAL STORM HERMINE, SEPTEMBER 2-3, 2016
Overview
Hermine was the first hurricane to make landfall in Florida since Hurricane Wilma in 2005. It was the ninth tropical depression, and fourth hurricane of the 2016 season. Hermine developed from a tropical wave in the Caribbean. On August 29, Hermine intensified to a Category 1 hurricane in the south central Gulf of Mexico before making landfall in the northeast Florida Panhandle near Cedar Key on September 2. The storm weakened quickly and transitioned to a post-tropical cyclone before moving off the coast over the Outer Banks on September 3. The system produced very heavy rainfall, rip currents and three tornadoes in eastern North Carolina.
